Coonbuster

Makes a pretty reliable light. They are based in my area, so lots of people around here have one of theirs. They seem to have a good battery life, and their repair service is good, from what I've heard. I have one of their 17 volt light systems, and have not had any trouble with it in 2 1/2 years. They just started producing a belt light that looks pretty good, probably get me one next year.

Bright Eyes

I have owned the Terminator light from Bright Eyes for about 4 yrs. now and am now thinking of buying one of the belt lights. After looking around and comparing what is out there, and considering the great service that I have had out of my present light. I will buying another Bright Eyes product. By the way the one I currently have is still going strong I just thought I would give it to my son to use and get me one of the belt lights. I think if you will compare the lights that are out there, my opinion is that Bright Eyes has them all beat on price and quality. By the way I am in no way affiliated with this company.

I'm a Bright Eyes man too

I hunt with a Terminator. Had it two years or more. No problems. I like the Reo style switch. Can turn it as low as needed. Weighs only 2 pounds. 24 hrs on low. It's a box light, but I like the burn time on it. The Belt lights don't have as much burn time. . Bright Eyes new belt light has a long burn time. Off the top of my head it's about 18 hrs or so, I believe.

Cajun Stinger + Beltlight. You canīt beat it, Iīve had it for three years and no problems at all.
I really recommend it.

Take care.

coon dawg...

Bright Eyes Terminator.

That's what Quincy uses. He swears by his.

I've got an Exterminator, and I think a friend of ours is going to sell us his Dominator.

So, we're just one big Bright Eyes family!!!
